Chapter 406: Basked in Moonlight (2/2)
Following that, the notification of her being added as my Companion rang out. On her part, she certainly received it as well, however, her eyes were focused on me, waiting for my answer.
”Definitely. Let me take care of you from now on.” Lifting her hand to my lips, I smiled and planted a kiss on it as I kept my eyes on her.
Following that, I stayed a little more than ten minutes with her.
Spending that little time together, I promised her that I will still talk to her mother. There's no turning back anymore, that's why I should at least give the Matriarch proper respect for taking the hand of her precious daughter.

Upon leaving Lunaria's room, I left her Energy Stones for her to use after her Transcendence. I also gave some to Leianne and I had her call for the Door of Transcendence. This time, I also told Lunaria to do it.
With the upcoming addition of Elise and Dannae, in three days, seven Doors of Transcendence will appear in this world.
For sure, everyone in the Free City was already aware of the sudden appearance of two illusory Doors of Transcendence. Even my Companions who were probably in their Absorption Session using the stones and the Special Absorption Rooms to quicken the process were already aware that I was down here, taking in new Companions.
If the ones at the Moon were watching us, there's no way they wouldn't be aware of it.
It's already been hours since those Darkbugs retreated. If their failed leader was proven wise then he would start thinking about what went wrong with their operation. There's also the possibility that they would trounce him out completely after repeated failures. Now, these illusory Doors of Transcendence which would continuously appear in the city's night sky would add an alarm in their minds.
Before they could be completely horrified at their upcoming fates, I planned to deal with the Healing Faction first. Despite standing down, their mothership was hovering above the settlement after all.
Once Leianne got us the information and Krond finally gave in that he wouldn't be able to protect every Anzeans, especially those against this world, I will personally see to it that the Healing Faction will be no more before the dawn breaks.
Their mothership. Well... I somewhat covet it. Although there's a possibility that there's that kind of technology hidden on Earth, having it as a reference for the Space Vessels that could be used for traversing different World Zones is great. Most likely, the information gathered by the astrologers of Earth about outer space was insufficient. Not only Irja but also Alwyn confirmed the chaotic nature of Space. Sooner or later, we might also need to dive into that. It's better to be prepared for it.
”Elise, can I come in?” Knocking quietly at her door, I found out that it wasn't really closed.
Pushing it slightly, I was met welcomed by Elise's figure standing by the glass window. She's staring into the horizon, in the direction where Eldur was located.
”You don't need to ask me. You know I am waiting for you, Daisuke. Come and join me…” She slightly turned her head for our gaze to meet before beckoning me towards her.
Upon hearing that, I entered her room and gently closed it. Unlike the first two, this woman was naturally the one with the greatest apprehension about this. Nonetheless, I still stand by my decision to take her in as my Companion.
